Texans to play rubber match with Colts in AFC Wildcard

The Houston Texans will play a sugar game with the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Wildcard Saturday at NRG Stadium.

The Colts knocked off the Tennessee Titans 33-17 Sunday night at Nissan Stadium to secure the sixth and final playoff spot in the AFC.

Every year the Texans have qualified for the playoffs, they have won the AFC South. As a result, Houston has played the early afternoon game on Wildcard Saturday. The 2018 postseason will be no exception.

The opening round playoff contest will be broadcast on ESPN and simulcasted on ABC with a 3:35 p.m. Central Time kickoff. The announcers for the game will be Joe Tessitore, Jason Witten, and Anthony “Booger” McFarland.

If traditional viewing isn’t an option, maybe fuboTV is (try it free).

Houston got off their 0-3 schneid with a 37-34 win over the Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium in Week 4 with kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn hitting the game-winning field goal as time expired in overtime. The win sparked a nine-game winning streak for the Texans.
